To celebrate our highest #online player-count since the last wave of Bitcoin excitement, I'm running a "semi-freeroll" tournament in Dragon's Tale. I figured this is also a good way to explain our tournaments for those new to the game.
A true freeroll in Dragon's Tale is a tournament with meaningful sized prizes which limits players' bet sizes to a very small amount, typically an amount small enough that the free Bitcoin gifts in-game can cover your play. Imagine a slots tournament in a real casino where everyone is limited to 100 plays of 1 cent each, and the one that earns the most wins $1000 each - that's a freeroll.
This tournament has no spend limits, so to reach the top tier would be very difficult without depositing. To win one of the top tier 100 BTM (0.1 BTC) prizes, be among the top 6 players by cumulative winnings during the 2 hour tournament period.
The second tier awards 15 prizes of 20 BTM each. These will tend to be won by those that play for lower stakes, but not satoshi-level stakes.
The third tier awards 50 prizes of 5 BTM each. Since there are only about 50 players logged in as I write this, everyone that plays (even non-depositors) should win a prize.
This is also a great opportunity to meet all the friendly folks that hang out in Dragon's Tale - most are eager to show new users the ropes, just ask around. And, glad to answer any questions here.
The tournament starts at 3:00PM EST and lasts for 2 hours. Download the game client at

Triple Tier Roll

Tournament sponsored by: Di with BTC 1.150 in Prizes.
==========================================================
Any (raked) games may be played, but prizes are in 3 tiers: The top tier has 600 BTM of prizes, split evenly among 6 players by winnings, so each will get 100 BTM. These prizes will tend to go to those playing higher stakes.
The second tier is 300 BTM split evenly among 15 players also by winnings. The top-6 will also each claim one of these 20 BTM prizes. These prizes will tend to be won by those that play for lower stakes, though it may be hard to reach this level just from soldier gifts.
Finally, the third tier is 250 BTM split among 50 players - everyone that makes an effort should be able to claim one of these 5 BTM prizes, even if you don't deposit.
Here's the twist: There are no spend limits in this tournament. However, there are enough prizes that everyone playing at their own level should be able to win something.
It's great to be back in Costa Rica! Feel free to use the ATM if you need some additional Bitmils.
